Dearest Simon, Cousin and friend, though many hearts are broken, when we think of you, we only smile. You never failed to make us laugh and your memory will be treasured forever. Thinking of all your loved ones and sending love, Peter and family xxx

You, our brother-in-law, may not have always enjoyed all things Finnish - such as summer cottages with outhouses, crab (schnapps) parties or sauna with male relatives - but you loved Rauna very much. We will never forget your wedding in Cyprus and were so exited when Megan and Fred arrived. You were a wonderful dad to them: Loving and supportive, fun but firm and always very much involved in their lives. We have such fond memories of you and always looked forward to your visits. Wish there could have been more.

I was so very fond of my son-in-law Simon. You were always so helpful and respectful during Reijo's long illness. You and I had many conversations during the years which I enjoyed. I loved the way you raised your children and had so many different interests. You loved your Finnish sausage, Mignon chocolate eggs, the best steak place in the world 'Toro Grill' and the Pub tram. I miss you so much. Your memory will stay with me forever.
